Global Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) Market 2014-2018

Abstract
About Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) testing involves the identification of genetic defects in embryos. It is performed to identify single gene disorders such as Sickle Cell Anemia, Cystic Fibrosis, Huntington’s Disease, Hemophilia, Marfan’s Disease, Thalassemia, Muscular Dystrophy, Tay Sachs, and Spinal Muscular Atrophy. PGD tests are generally carried out in cases of a known genetic defect, or in late age pregnancy, or in patients with a history of repeated miscarriages. PCR, FISH, CGH, and SNP are some of the common technologies used in PGD testing with PCR the most widely used. FISH technology is beneficial in the determination of chromosomal abnormalities, X-linked diseases, and aneuploidy screening. CGH and SNP are advanced technologies, which have high accuracy in screening and diagnosis.
